If he does have cancer, it will most likely be luekimia or lymopha. He could get a donor for a bone marrow transplant.

I have been where you are now and I have great sympathy for both of you. Explain to our husband that his denial is making you ill, and it will, so to help keep you strong if the worst is to come he should at least see his GP if not his Oncologist.

If he still refuses then you must contact your doctor and explain your worries. The doctor could then make a "chance" visit and discover the problems himself.

It is much easier to deal with the problem once you know what it is. I found my imagination was worse than the reality.

I hope everything goes well for you and your husband.

My husband also had blood blisters over his lymph's tissues, in armpit, gr pin, and below his ear. He couldn't swallowed any type of food, even the gruel. First time, I thought he had some pancreas/digestive problems, but I was concerned with swollen in his body, I was thinking something serious happened, he couldn't walking, and got several mild heart attack.
After several day, he had blurred vision, and the swollen was getting bigger. He was suspecting as CML patient, or adult leukemia. I was too late to know it, he passed away within 3 months. It's terrible.
Just explain to him, that it will getting worse for him if he doesn't want to cooperate with you, it will hurt you. Somehow, he needs your full support, and courageous to face his health problems. Convince him, that you always be with him for whatever condition, even in sick or health.

It sounds like leukemia which my sister and cousin both have. Although it does sound more like leukemia another possibility is lymphoma which is simular in some ways. Hope all goes well, my thoughts are with you and your husband.
